WHAT YOU DO AT AMD CHANGES EVERYTHING

At AMD, our mission is to build great products that accelerate next-generation computing experiences—from AI and data centers, to PCs, gaming and embedded systems. Grounded in a culture of innovation and collaboration, we believe real progress comes from bold ideas, human ingenuity and a shared passion to create something extraordinary. When you join AMD, you’ll discover the real differentiator is our culture. We push the limits of innovation to solve the world’s most important challenges—striving for execution excellence, while being direct, humble, collaborative, and inclusive of diverse perspectives. Join us as we shape the future of AI and beyond. Together, we advance your career.

THE ROLE:

We are looking for a dynamic, energetic Senior Software Systems Design Engineer to join our growing compiler performance and functional validation team.

THE PERSON:

You will deliver to our next generation of products in CPU by performing compiler performance and functional validation

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Drive technical innovation to strengthen AMD's validation capabilities, including software tool and script development, enhancement of technical and procedural methodologies, and participation in internal and cross-functional initiatives.

• Develop a comprehensive test strategy and end-to-end validation plan to ensure functional quality and performance readiness across releases

• Engage with fellow leads and managers to jointly evaluate options and arrive at well‑aligned technical solutions and plans.

• Utilize AI to take the validation process to the next level by improving test effectiveness, automation, and insights

• Support and coach team members with less experience in diagnosing and resolving technical challenges

• Take direct ownership of troubleshooting and resolving compiler build, linking, and test configuration issues across benchmark suites and open‑source, enterprise, and HPC applications using multiple compilers.

• Establish and track validation metrics to systematically drive process optimization and quality improvements.

• Validate compilers by developing tests from both black-box and white-box perspectives to cover compiler features comprehensively.

• Triage compiler issues, determine root causes, identify gaps in existing test coverage, and develop additional tests to strengthen the compiler test workload.

• Automate the execution of compiler functional and performance tests across various test suites.

• Automate the comparison of compiler functional and performance test results.

• Automate the generation and delivery of compiler test reports.

• Provide technical leadership in compiler validation areas.

• Develop novel approaches to leverage AI for defect triage, root cause analysis, and defect reporting for compliers.

• Resolve application build infra issues with open-source applications, HPC applications to ensure compatibility with different C, C++, and FORTRAN compilers.

• Analyze compiler defects and create minimal reproducible test cases for failing compiler test workloads.

• Design and build new tools to improve the efficiency of compiler testing.

• Analyze external and customer-reported compiler defects, automate them for validation in nightly compiler tests, and develop additional tests based on scenarios derived from these defects.

• Convert feature specifications into test cases (manual and automated) covering boundary, negative, functional, and other types of testing.

• Consistently deliver accurate and timely summary and individual validation reports to stakeholders.

   PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

• Compiler development, bug fixing, and maintenance with a focus on improving compiler quality.
• Compiler performance analysis with a focus on improving compiler quality.
• Compiler performance benchmarking.
• Compiler black-box and white-box validation.
• Programming and scripting skills (Python, Shell scripting, PowerShell, C, C++).
• Debug techniques and methodologies.
• Strong knowledge and hands-on experience with PC configurations (both software and hardware) and troubleshooting methods.
• Proven experience working with Windows and Linux operating systems.
• Knowledge of system architecture, technical debugging, and validation strategies.
• Detail-oriented with the ability to multitask through effective planning and organization.
• Excellent communication and presentation skills.

   ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:

• Bachelors or master’s degree in engineering.
